I have my self in a two way struggle between committing myself to soccer or becoming a scholar, In The summer im expected to be at Chelsea but haven't made my mind up. I love Soccer yet when i look at some Sheikh's and memorize the Quran I fall in love with Islam and tell myself I'll pursue becoming a scholar. Likewise when I kick a ball or watch soccer more notably Arsenal i tell myself I'll Pursue Soccer:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
I have no clue what to do, Im lost in my own world, plz help
salmualikum
now now, we have a soccer dude here mashallah. Akhi well obviously from my point of veiw i will say 'soccer' :X why? because i love soccer to bits but on the other hand islam-Ud-Deen aswel. so why not do two things at once
Ma'assalama
I want to study In Makkah and Madinah yet Chelsea is in London, i wouldn't mind if they converted all the players to Islam and moved Stamford bridge to Madinah
its not only "football" vs "scholar" it's London vs Hijaz, to me London can't be compared with Hijaz but thats where my "football" lies

Akhi mahsallah your into your deen aswel am proud of yea
now where exactly do you live? can't you go to London but my opinion is why don't you play soccer like i do aswel with friends && do Hifz aswel, && then maybe from there you can become a soccer 'actual' player. But your gonna go in Chelsea right now thats
Ma'assalama

well Ukthi not really you don't HAVE to wear shorts to show your awrah && no about prayers there's always a place were you can pray && you don't have to miss them. Also if theirs like 2mins left or so then obviously he can do Kartha.
Ma'assalama
salmualikum.
you wish akhi lol
but would you want all the audience to actually see you all the dudettes && dudes erm nah not really but theirs always a room inside near wear the changing rooms are wear you can pray. like when David Bekham comes out from that ally way that white thingy bob whatever you call it lol theres a room there aswel. seen it ma self on T.V && it's true.
But Akhi i will say stick to a Scholar && then you can still play soccer tho.
Ma'assalama

salmualikum.
Akhi may i ask is it boarding school where you live there && also don't you play soccer there && is it mixed (don't think so, but just asking inshallah)
Ma'assalama
I am going to say, scholar. Simply because soccer is a sport where you will injure yourself no matter how good you are. Every sport puts a human body to its limit and once you reach that limit, you will be disappointed. In addition, soccer has the highest rates for physical injures; such as broken bones, ribs, and fractures. That sport is not worth it, and sports don't really accomplish anything anyway, hence stick with Scholar. It will open more doors to great opportunities and your faith in Islam will improve.
More pros on scholar than soccer. Soccer has cons and it will lead to fitnah because soccer players tend to sleep with the ladies; that's a fact.
Also, I agree with kittygyal sister on the fact its called soccer, not football because I'm Canadian and in North America that is what's it called.

your right akhi it's true there will be a caious with all dudettes indeed. ill stay play soccer with your muslim brothers like i do with my nephews && neices && friends it's better like that akhi, && inshallah then you can go && study in Madinah as a scholar inshallah Allah Azwajal.
Ma'assalama
P.S ofcourse it's called 'soccer' not football thats different to soccer were ze best dude :X
I would say scholar because basically soccer is nothing compared to it. You can be the best Muslim and still have fun on the side in ur spare time. you'll only be closer to Allah(swt) which is our main goal and still be your fun self, Insha'Allah
*Without Allah, without Islam, life would be meaningless. If I've ever learned patience, it's because of this. Alhamdulillah...*
so on the day of Judgement, if Allah asks 'why did you miss the prayer?', you would answer...because i had an important game i had to play
plus as aju said:
salamualikum.
true, thats why bwhen i read brother 'limitless' post i said that true because hence we can play soccer when ever but becoming a scholar && when we have the oppertunity it's better to just become a scholar inshallah && play soccer with his brothers inshallah.
Ma'assalama
Ask yourself, which is better for my Dunya and Aakhirah? Pray Istikhara.
If you ask my opinion, I would say a scholar. Being a scholor, you can take a break and play soccer with other brothers etc, but getting into soccer completely, you'll get pulled into that lifestyle whether you want it or not and put into risk your Aakhirah.
